As I mentioned in a previous post, I was asked to host a bachelorette party. Because I had little time to prepare, I was searching for easy, yet yummy, food to serve. This cheese ball came to mind. (Also check out the lingerie cookies that I made---they were a hit.) My sister, Renae, made this many times in the past for parties and it always went over well.
Ingredients Needed:
16 oz. soft cream cheese
8 oz. drained crushed pineapple
2 T. green onion
1/4 c. green pepper, chopped fine
2 tsp. Lawry's seasoning salt
Sliced almonds to cover cheese ball
DIRECTIONS BELOW WITH PICTURES
1. Gather your ingredients.
2. I like to measure everything before I start. Make sure the pineapple is drained well.
3. Stir soft cream cheese until smooth.
4. Add drained pineapple.
5. Stir in remaining ingredients.
6. Roll contents into a nice ball. Refrigerate overnight. Cover with sliced almonds before you serve. (I apologize for not getting a picture with the almonds...oops. :)
Serve with crackers of your choice. I like Ritz or TownHouse butter crackers.
It's awesome to replace the almonds with crushed pecans as the coating, too. :) Love this cheeseball!
